After cleaning up from the ritual (but not quite getting out all of the menthol effects) Olivia heads towards the Dam in the hope of picking up Amelia. As luck would have it, she finds the Kadie coming down the road already to return the box with Abner Wingnut's head in it to the Blacktail vault. She waves to Amelia, and asks her to come with her, when Gunther zips by and snatches the box from the other Kadie's hands.
Amy yells at Gunther, who doesn't seem to feel any respect for the head of the founder of his own clan. He tosses it back to Amelia, who storms off in a huff. All the while Olivia has been laughing. Gunther climbs up a tree, and Olivia explains about her nightmare and thinking she might be a troll to the younger Kadie.
Before Gunther can attack her for being a troll, Olivia notes that Isolde and Natasha just tested her and she knows now that she isn't a troll at all. Then Amelia is back and tickles Gunther until he falls out of the tree.
As they start for the castle (Gunther insisting on escorting them so they don't 'burn the place to the ground') Olivia fills in Amy on what happened, including the sleepwalking. Gunther comments about going back to explore the ruins, and Amelia warns him off, since the ruins belong to her.
At the castle, Dr. Pike shows them where all of Orifice's notes and such are kept, and Olivia begins sorting through them.
